Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for containing and extinguishing fires and preventing fires, especially extensive fires and fires in dwellings, which differs from known extinguishing means and appliances in that it takes the form of a synthetic plastics foil, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, which contains flame-smothering or inhibiting additives and is intended in use to be laid upon burning or endangered objects to form an airexcluding protective layer which, due to the flexibility of the foil, covers all irregularities in sealed manner.
  • a synthetic plastics foil such as polyethylene or polypropylene
  • the invention relates to a method for the production of the device.
  • FIG. 1 is a partial longitudinal section or cross-section through the device
  • FIG. 2 shows the device wound on to a roll and withdrawable from the roll for use.
  • the device for containing and extinguishing fires and for preventing fires consists according to FIG. 1 of a double-layer foil 1 of polyethylene or polypropylene.
  • the thickness of the double-layer foil, blown on an extruder, is 0.3-0.4 mm.
  • a thickness of 0.2-0.6 mm. has also proved expedient.
  • Its melting range lies between 105° C. and 135° C.
  • the raw material for the foil contains flamesmothering or inhibiting additives such as antimony.
  • the raw material of polyethylene and the additives combine during the extrusion operation into a homogeneous, whitish polyehtylene foil.
  • the foil 1 is formed from an upper layer 2 and a lower layer 3, the two layers being sealed to one another along the longitudinal edges of the foil, as illustrated in FIG. 1, but being otherwise spaced from one another to provide a cavity between the layers which acts additionally as insulation.
  • the foil is inert to water, alkalis, salt solutions, etc. and possesses a low water vapour permeability. It is soft, toughly elastic and flexible and possesses a high electric insulation capacity.
  • the foil is wound on to a roll 4 and is placed on the market in this form in any desired widths, or cut to shape as an extinguisher blanket. A piece required to cover a fire is separated in each case from this roll. Since the foil is produced in any desired width and wound on to rolls 4, for example in the case of widespread conflagrations (fuel, kerosene, field or forest fires), by unrolling webs of any desired length it is possible to extinguish large areas in minimum time. The foil webs can be unrolled like a carpet. Since the foil has a relatively low melting point, as a result of the heat radiated by the fire it places itself in plastic manner immediately airtightly over all irregularities and smothers the flames.
  • the foil In order to prevent all danger of fire, for example at airports as a result of escaping fuel, such as petrol or kerosene, the foil is drawn over the escaping liquid . In the case of forest fires the foil is laid in clear aisles so that the fire is prevented from jumping over.
  • escaping fuel such as petrol or kerosene
  • the production of the double-layer web from polyethylene foil is effected by blowing on an extruder, the flame-smothering or inhibiting additives being added.
  • the additives are of such nature that they enter into a homogeneous combination with polyethylene.
  • antimony in granular form is added thereto by the extruder.
